Hello,
1. Clean escape in case of a version mismatch
If rdiff-backup detects a difference in the rdiff-backup versions used in a
network setup, it should print a error message and exit.
Now it prints a warning and crashes. Due to the python dump, newbies get the
impression rdiff-backup is unstable software.
2. backwards compatibility
I know this is hard to implement. But in a large network, you can't live
without. (think http 1.0 and http 1.1, ssh 1 and 2)
That's my suggestion for future versions. Provide some level of compatibility
between stable releases of rdiff-backup. So you only have to upgrade the
rdiff-backup install on you backup server(s).
We eliminate the client completely by installing rdiff only on backup
server and mount remote boxes via fuse and sshfs. Simple. Works great.
Thanks,
BDV
